hand/some



photo friday's new theme is: Handsome.
not an easy theme for me, as i usually don't photograph people. but browsing files, i finally arrived at a most handsome figure, in a posture that also points at another aspect of hands: mudras, the symbolic, spiritual  gesture (here's more: Mudra/Wiki).

the photo is from the British Museum again - just like last week's phot, "Tall"
and here's a little language peculiarity: "hand" is one of the few words that are same in English and German: "the hand" - "die Hand".
